In the Tianze Continent, the thousand-year-old artifact "Xuanxi Wheel" was lost in troubled times, the countries were in turmoil, and the heroes were vying for the throne. Yunyuan was originally a hermit in the mountains. He suffered from a strange illness and had no peace day and night. He could only cultivate his mind by borrowing fragments of ancient books. One night, the Xuanxi Wheel appeared in a dream and gave him an ancient prophecy: The artifact will choose those who are destined to settle disputes. As a result, Yun Yuan stepped into the world, but he was not driven by power, nor did he have the ambition to save the world. He only wanted to solve his own illness and explore the origin of the Xuan Xi Wheel and his destiny.
The story takes Yun Yuan Gu as the main line, traveling between Yujing, Shuomo, and the old town of Jiangnan, and is involved in the intricate chess game between princes and ancient sects. The artifact is not a purely benevolent thing, and changes will occur wherever it goes: people's hearts are greedy, grudges can easily turn, and Yunyuan is repeatedly trapped in choices. From what he sees and feels, he gradually realizes that artifacts only reflect the subtleties of human nature, and that real legends are the choices and growth hidden behind the fog. This book lays out the ancient meaning of mountains and rivers in a poetic style and depicts the postures of all living beings. It contains both tolerance and heroism, as well as compassion and philosophical thinking. It explores the ultimate belonging of humans and gods, fate and weapons in prosperous and troubled times.
